July 31st is National Mutt Day!
🐶 This special day was created to be celebrated on two dates per year, to raise awareness of the plight of mixed breed dogs in shelters around the nation, as approximately 80% of dogs in shelters are mixed breeds. Our mission is to educate you about the sea of mixed breed dogs that desperately await new homes, and to celebrate the amazing characteristics that the mix of breeds creates in each individual dog.
🐶 Mixed breed dogs tend to be healthier, better behaved, to live longer and are just as able to perform the duties of purebred dogs - such as bomb and drug sniffing, search and rescue and guiding the blind. There are millions of loving and healthy mixed breed dogs sitting in shelters, who are desperately searching for a new home. If you are looking for another furry canine friend, please consider adopting from the shelter.
Send us a selfie and tell us about your marvelous mutt today!
